Terms of Service

Last updated: July 28, 2026

These terms govern your use of the DataLodge website at datalodge.ai, any demo or invite request you send us, and, if you are accepted into our private beta, your use of the DataLodge services. We have kept them as short and as plain as a real legal document allows.

1. Acceptance of these terms

By using the website, submitting an invite or demo request, or accessing the DataLodge services during the private beta, you agree to these terms. "DataLodge", "we", and "us" mean DataLodge, Inc. "Services" means the DataLodge product made available during the private beta, together with this website.

If you use the services on behalf of a company or other organization, you confirm that you have authority to bind it, and "you" includes that organization. If your organization has signed a separate agreement with us covering the services, that agreement controls wherever it conflicts with these terms. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the website or the services.

2. The private beta

DataLodge is in a private, invite-only beta. We decide who gets access, and an invite request does not guarantee an invite. During the beta:

• Features may change, break, or be removed at any time without notice.
• We may pause or end the beta, or your access to it, at any time.
• The services are provided without any service level commitment, uptime guarantee, or support obligation.
• The services are offered free of charge unless we agree otherwise with your organization in writing.

3. DataLodge is not a system of record

DataLodge is a productivity and analytics layer over information your team already produces. It is not a system of record, and you must not treat it as one.

The services work on copies of material your team creates in the ordinary course of a project: daily logs, field reports, schedules, and the plans and metrics derived from them. You must keep your authoritative project records (commissioning and turnover documentation, quality records, safety records, contractual deliverables, and anything a regulator or counterparty could ask you to produce) in your own official systems, exactly as you would without DataLodge.

The services are not designed, offered, or represented as satisfying any regulatory, contractual, or legal recordkeeping requirement. That includes, without limitation, quality and GxP-style documentation obligations that apply to pharmaceutical and other regulated builds. You may not rely on DataLodge as the official or sole repository of any record, and your organization remains solely responsible for creating, maintaining, and retaining the records that laws, regulators, and contracts require of it. If anything in the services ever appears to conflict with your official records, your official records control.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the website or the services. In particular, you will not:

• upload or share content that is unlawful or that you do not have the right to share;
• attempt to access accounts, projects, or data that are not yours;
• probe, scan, or test the security of the services except with our prior written consent;
• interfere with or disrupt the services, or place an unreasonable load on them;
• scrape the website or the services with automated tools, or use them to build a competing product;
• resell, sublicense, or provide the services to third parties during the beta;
• misrepresent who you are or who you work for when requesting an invite.

5. Your content and our platform

Your content stays yours. You and your licensors retain all rights in the logs, reports, and other material you submit to the services. You grant us a limited license to host, process, and display that content solely to provide and improve the services for you. We claim no ownership of it, and we do not use one customer's project content to serve another customer.

The platform stays ours. DataLodge and its software, design, documentation, and branding are owned by DataLodge, Inc. and its licensors. These terms give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the services during the beta and grant you no other rights.

6. Feedback

The beta exists so we can learn. If you send us suggestions, ideas, or other feedback about the services, we may use it without restriction and without any obligation to you. Feedback never includes your project content, which stays governed by section 5.

7. Disclaimers

The website and the services are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, or that any output of the services (including reports, plans, and metrics) will be accurate or complete. Nothing in the services is engineering, legal, or compliance advice.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, DataLodge, Inc. and its officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising out of or related to the website or the services, even if we have been advised that such damages are possible.

To the same extent, our total liability for all claims arising out of or related to the website or the services is capped at one hundred US dollars ($100) or, if greater, the amounts your organization paid us for the services in the twelve months before the claim arose. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

9. Indemnification

If a third party brings a claim against us because your use of the services violated these terms or the law, you will cover the reasonable costs and damages we incur as a result. We will notify you promptly of any such claim and cooperate with you in handling it sensibly.

10. Termination

You may stop using the services at any time. We may suspend or end your access to the services at any time, with notice where practical, including if you breach these terms or if we wind down the beta. On termination we will, on request, make reasonable efforts to let you export content you submitted, for a period of thirty days. Sections 3, 5 through 9, and 11 survive termination.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. The state and federal courts located in Delaware have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of these terms or the services, and both sides consent to venue there.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the new version at this address and update the date at the top. If a change is material and you are in the beta, we will make reasonable efforts to tell you directly, for example by email. Continuing to use the services after a change takes effect means you accept the updated terms.
